 In some website on formal writing, they said:

 In other website, some say cut down on the usage of &amp;#39; I, my ... &amp;#39;

 Does it depend on whom the letter is addressed to? I am writing a formal letter to recommend the best idea, and the letter is for the principal of the school. I need to start by introducing myself . What are the best ways to start?

 An exclamation mark after &amp;quot;Thank you&amp;quot; is OK if you want a bright and breezy style. It would not be appropriate in a very formal letter. 
 &amp;quot;The Management&amp;quot; is also OK. 
 If that&amp;#39;s the end of the sign-off then there should not be a comma after &amp;quot;The Management&amp;quot;.</description></item></channel></rss>
